2015 DobberHockey Fantasy Football League Tier I: Season 5

[horrorfan]

Speaking of league history, I've never made it out of the first round. The first year was my best (2nd place in the regular season) but we had no bye then and I lost to the 7th seed. Since then I've either just squeaked in or just missed the playoffs.

Pretty sure horrorfan is just trolling/jinxing me now. Team for sure peaked to early. But ya boy ARob was doing football things. So pumped about how he turned out this season, I drafted him everywhere. Was so high on the kid. But really, I got 7 touchdowns from my WRs. That seems like the definition of peaking early lol. I'll just have to settle for highest PF in the regular season.

Haha. You've been on a roll lately so hopefully my guys can pick it up. If both our teams play to their expected level, it could be close and high scoring. But of course in the fantasy playoffs, it rarely goes according to plan. Should be exciting.

Haha, what a finish for the Monday Nighter and my season! Had Dez Bryant and Darren McFadden going in tonight's game and everything looked like an easy amount of ground to make up (about 12 points behind, projected for about 21 points). Well didn't both my guys sh*t the bed. McFadden scores the apparent winning TD, putting me less than .2 points back with no way to make it up...UNLESS Washington scores a game tying TD with almost no time left...which is exactly what they did! That gave one of Bryant or McFadden an opportunity to give me at least a point to put me in front. Thank you Dez! 116.04 to 114.18 WIN for the Frisky Hobbit!! Love/hate this game.

Squeaked in!

[Pengwin7]

I won't be starting Tannehill next week.
The HOYER-train is comin' ta getcha!

[rataylor22]

In another league, I might have to start Tannehill

Damn you Andrew Luck lacerated spleen

[Axeman33]

I'm still scratching my head as to who I am going to start at RB this week.

Freeman has been average the past few weeks, Eddie Lacy is either way up or a disaster and Draughn has a good matchup vs Cleveland this week.

I am normally scrambing to find guys to roster but this week I have to make the tough choice on who to sit.

[horrorfan]

My team didn't perform well enough and that's me out again. Five years in the league and still haven't made it past the first round of the playoffs. Good luck in the semis, Ryan.

[Axeman33]

I am on the road to the big upset victory this week. I am surprised to be honest. Fitzpatrick has been a saving grace for me.

[Pengwin7]

Ah... Brian Hoyer and your 4.10pts.
'Tis fantasy football for ya.
That game took me from a 51% fave to a 15% dog.

The extra pain is that I coulda been on BYE if I woulda made a better QB decision last week.

Here's the game I need tonight from the Giants:
150yds, 1TD from Odell. 21pts
60yds, 1TD from Will Tye. 12pts
3xp, 2FG from Josh Brown. 9pts
---
42pts.
Yahoo! gives me a 15% shot to get it done. Eff Yahoo!

[horrorfan]

Ah... Brian Hoyer and your 4.10pts.

Yep, I had Hopkins so was pulling for them. I blame you.

[rataylor22]

Eli just sitting over here on my bench looking at you team like "*sniff*, but but, but but, I could *sniff* started".

I honestly thought NUK was gonna smash me. Happy to be moving on, good matchup.

Hoyer was your best option??

Actual:
Odell 28+
Tye 9
Brown 7
= 44+

And the win.

[Axeman33]

Nice come from behind win Pengwin7.

I won't lie, I didn't think it would happen. I lost in my other fantasy league too so thankfully my fantasy football season is complete.

Other than Devanta Freeman sucking ass, there wasn't much else I could have done.

FWIW, I was cheering for a big night from Odell as well. I had him and Eli Manning in my Draft Kings lineup and thankfully, that duo gave me a come-from-behind victory as well there. At least that one was for money.

Good luck to all going forward.
